With z/OS®, the LOGON keyword
on the CONSOLE statement in CONSOLxx can override the console LOGON
default on the DEFAULT statement.
To control how operators can log on to specific MCS,
HMCS or
SMCS consoles, specify the following keywords on the CONSOLE statement
in CONSOLxx:
- LOGON
- Controls the logon for operators of MCS, HMCS and
SMCS consoles
Options you can specify for LOGON are as follows:
- AUTO
- Specifies that the console is automatically logged on.
- REQUIRED
- Specifies that the console must be logged on before commands can be issued.
- OPTIONAL
- Specifies that the console does not need to be logged on.
- DEFAULT
- Specifies that the console is to use the LOGON value on the DEFAULT statement. If you specify
DEFAULT and the DEFAULT statement does not contain a LOGON value, the system issues an error message
and uses LOGON(OPTIONAL) for an MCS console and LOGON(REQUIRED) for SMCS.
